Explanation

You can use algebra rules for limits:

  1. lim (x → c) [f(x) + g(x)] = lim f(x) + lim g(x)

  2. lim (x → c) [f(x) − g(x)] = lim f(x) − lim g(x)

  3. lim (x → c) [f(x) × g(x)] = lim f(x) × lim g(x)

  4. lim (x → c) [f(x) / g(x)] = lim f(x) / lim g(x), if lim g(x) ≠ 0


Quiz

  1. Can you split a sum in limits?

  2. lim (x → 2) [(x+1) + (2x−3)] = ?

  3. Can you split a product in limits?

  4. lim (x → 3) [(x−1)(2x+5)] = ?

  5. Can you divide limits if denominator = 0?

Answer Key

  1. Yes

  2. (2+1) + (2×2−3) = 3 + 1 = 4

  3. Yes

  4. (3−1)(2×3+5) = 2×11 = 22

  5. No
